Tattoo Design Brief

I am retiring from the US Army after 30 years and want to design a tattoo that encompasses a long and adventurous career. I'm hoping to get a badass tattoo in black and grey on my left calf (approximately 3.5 inches by 12 inches). I'd like the images to be a collage and a medley of all these images/concepts.

I have achieved the rank of Sergeant Major and I'd like that to be a centerpiece along with a representation of the US Army (emblem) and a representation of the special forces (without the actual crest....I'd like the reference to be subtle but noticeable). The V-42 Stiletto could be included in the design (image included) as it was the first official blade of the green beret.

As an example of what I'm looking for........On the Army Logo, I don't just want the image cut and pasted in the piece, I'd like YOUR interpretation of an eagle holding the arrows and olive branch.......The official logo is boring and I want something unique and dynamic.

I only mention this because most of the images submitted so far have been images cut and pasted over each other with little effort to make the piece unique or one of a kind. I can cut and paste just as easy but want something more personalized and see the artists interpretation of each of these images.......

I was an explosives engineer in the Army and that should be represented as well but will leave it to the designer.

I like the idea of the rank being chiseled in stone or made of metal with rivets.

I like the idea of an image embedded within the rank as shown in image "R" but there needs to be much more surrounding the centerpiece.

During a portion of my career, I was in the 29th Infantry Division. This division is the only remaining active infantry division that stormed the beaches of Normandy in WWII and has been involved in every conflict dating back to the Civil War. It's one of the most highly decorated infantry divisions in the USA. With that, I've included the unit logo if you're able to include.
